This webpage is our newest addition to our Curriculum Website, created as a one-stop shop for academic staff to obtain useful information and documentation to help them in their line of work.
There are four modules which are now no longer compulsory (as of 12th January 2009). They are as follows:
Level 1
Learning and Skills Development for HE and Work (15 credits)
Understanding the Work Sector (15 credits)
Work Based Learning 1 (15 credits)
Level 2
Work Based Learning 2 (30 credits)
These modules may still be used but can be modified to your subject / work based learning area. In some cases you will want to replace them with new modules. This is fine, but approval panels will wish to be assured that the QAA benchmarks are achieved within the Foundation Degree.
Please do contact us should you feel there is anything
else we could include on this page, relevant to Foundation Degrees.
